Illinois Emergency Medical Services for ChildrenNeonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Evacuation Guidelines Evacuation of an NICU is a high risk activity and requires a carefully planned approach due to the fragile medical condition of these infants, the various medical technology/devices they depend upon for survival, and the overall surge capacity/transfer pattern in managing an increase in NICU patients.
